Oh, no, they exist almost everywhere. They often have names in no way related to the English words "money order" but they can be found -- usually through the post office. If your nation belongs to the International Postal Union your post office sells money orders (maybe not your neighborhood post office but the big ones), They are seldom to never used in many countries, but they are available. I know because for three years I was the international admissions coordinator at a small college in the US and our application fee was requires to be paid in the form of an International Postal Money Order. I got the things from just about everywhere -- Nepal to Namibia, Germany to Japan, Botswana to Bolivia, Papua New Guinea to Equatorial Guinea. The only country I can't recal getting one from is Nigeria. Nigerian applicants would always have their Auntie come by in person with cash. Adam
